Adam Levin, who co-owns the shop with his wife, Tammy, is hardly your average diner drone. Instead, he's a five-star chef who counts Wolfgang Puck and Jean-Louis Palladin among his mentors and boasts a résumé that includes stints at Spago in Las Vegas and Aria in Beijing. After arriving in Hong Kong in 2001 to head the Great Eagle Hotel's Bostonian, he began having entrepreneurial aspirations when Tammy developed a craving for tacos-hardly...
